John w. Rose, one Of the solid cattle
kings residing in the southeastern part
of the county, was shaking hands with
his many friends in the city yesterday.
Mr.. Rose called at the STAR Office
while in town and spent few mo-
ments in pleasant converse with its
publishers. He has just returned from
a trip to Texas but does not give very
promising outlook for that section this
season; he also paid a years subscrip.
ton for the STAR and complimented the
proprietors upon the neat and newsy
appearance OF the paper.
d. B. Ingram and j. A. Stanley, the
latter brother of the writer, editor
of the Hermosa Plot, drove down from
Hcrmosa last Friday. They are lavish
in their praise of the beneficial effects
of the mineral waters here, and availed
themselves Of the many beautiful
drives in this vicinity, viewing the
magnificent scenery and the wonderful
freaks of nature for which this country
is famous. Mr.. and Mrs. Stanley left
for home Tuesday morning. Mr..
Ingram is 10th 10 leave this beautiful
place and will remain here indefinitely
to recnpsrate his health which is

stopped only for short time on hisway
10 the Northern Hills to look after some
business interests. The Judge is now
a fixture at Hot Springs in the town

beauties of the location, the salubrity
of the climate and the remedial quali-
lies Of the waters. And there is no ex-

to Dakota's comparatively new, but cer-

Cleveland and Carlisle.

We have long looked upon John q.
Carlisle as the foremost living American.
He towers far above his contemporaries
i'm the most valuable qualities whose
combination produces the ideal man
for the age and situation now upon us.
Long in advance of the last National
Convention, we declared our ticket to
be Cleveland and Carlisle, but admitted
even then the expediency of taking a
Western Democrat for Vice President.
And now that Daniel Manning is COM
PEELED to resign, he can have no worthier
successor than John G.. Carlisle. On
all sides he is acknowledged to be a safe
adviser, and his ability and rigid impair
TALLY is granted by both parties. As
Secretary of the Treasury Re will he in
a position to render better service to his
country and party than as Vice-President,
and we sincerely hope that Mr.. Cleve
land will offer the guardianship of the
public finances to Mr.. Carlisle. He is
eminently conscientious. able and popu-
lar, and his close naturalization with the
administration will greatly add to its
popularity. His personal interests will
possibly suffer, and he is still a poor man,
but he is patriot and cannot refuse
the responsibility if 1t is offered him.

Of public education is the glory of our
American system of government, and

American education. This efficient
teacher has spent lifetime in educating
some of the youth of the South, and " ell

Then, there is in Crescent City, proper,
a noble lady, Mrs. Whitman, whose large

Travelling from Grovesdale on foot, as
there was no other mode of conveyance,

The next visited was the Huntington

lady from st. Johnsbury, VT. This is a

they sent the engineers three times to

The following notes ON dress are furnished

The white petticoat is rather a costly article

such matters the French are essentially par

held its ground in France, while in some
other countries it has Of late years been al
most driven from general use. Yet even in
this matter of the white petticoat fashion is
forbidding French ladies to be henceforth

AnOpen Fraud.

We take it for granted that nobody
in our State will question the
strict correctness and impartial farm
of the report male by the committee APP
pointed by the Governor, consisting of
Messrs. Daniel, Davidson and Bradford.
And, granting this, there is no escape
from the charge of fraud save on the
superstition of ignorance. For the COM
mittee expressly endorses the plan pro-
posed as entirely practical, and the work
contemplated as feasible and proper and
well adapted to the end proposed. Yet
the work done is insufficient, and the
permanent effect, in the Judgment of
the committee, is absolutely nal. Now,
if we will recollect that on this work the
Drainage Company bases claim for
nearly a million acres, that this claim
has been examined and the work ap-
proved by the State Engineer, and, on
this approval the grant has been made.
there is no escape from the charge of
fraud save in the confession Of criminal
negligence or ignorance whose density
would be inexcusable.
There has been an attempt, probably
successful, to rob the State of one million
acres at least. When it is remembered
that this property was a trust confided to
the State for specific purpose, and that
an official has been found whose report
and approval as filed endorses the claim.
the Indignation of the public is seen to
be just and proper, and the good faith of
the State, as well as its financial interests,
are seen to be clearly involved
